I've been waiting since last fall for this to become available in the US. The last response I got from thrustmaster is that it should be back in stock and in retail stores in February. I'm not holding my breath since they originally told me it would be available before christmas. It sounds like it did make it for Christmas in Canada. My local EB World (Ohio) says it is in their systems but doesn't show a release date. Jim Harmon

Is that the one for the PC or the PS? I have only seen the PS version at EB. For $159 CDN I'll buy a spare... Marc <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Pretty sure it was for the PC. It was next to the other PC wheels (Logitech FF, MS non-F) on the floor. On the upper shelves they had the PC racing games. They had other wheels for N64, PS, etc but they were in the console section. On Thu, 08 Feb 2001 02:53:15 GMT, "Marc Collins" <[email hidden]> wrote:
